Life span. An average fluorescent tube will last around 10,000 hours but deteriorate in light output after around 7,000 hours of operation. An L.E.D. tube will have an operational life time expectation of up to 70,000 hours

Energy consumption. L.E.D. tubes use approximately 30% of the power of a fluorescent tube saving $’s on your energy bill

Efficiency. Fluorescent lighting is affected by temperature. They work best in mild room temperatures. If the room temperature increases or decreases significantly, it affects the tube and quality of the light. L.E.D. tubes are not affected by room temperatures , therefore you will get the same energy savings no matter what time of year

Lighting quality. L.E.D. tubes generate bright directional lighting meaning you can have the light you need exactly where you want it. Fluorescent lighting is not as bright and dissipates easily

Environmental and safety concerns. Fluorescent tubes contain Mercury, which is harmful to a person or the environment when the tube breaks and have to be disposed of properly. L.E.D. tubes are safe to use, have no mercury or toxic materials and are easy to dispose of
